I just finished an article about the current state of our government's cyber security capabilities: https://slate.com/technology/2019/01/government-shutdown-cybersecurity-dhs-nist.html?via=homepage_taps_bottom
Everywhere we look these days we find evidence that critical Federal security activities (and many others) are sub par. Today, our security is only partially supported by the ever growing military budget. Much of it is in other departmental budgets that are at the mercy of anti government pressures from within. On top of that, we now have a chief executive who is, putting it kindly, a fucking moron. It has been proven repeatedly (and just yesterday) that Americans can be stirred into heights of concern over security fears (accurately presented or not) and willing to trade security (real or implied) for extreme (and perhaps off target) "solutions".
I humbly suggest stirring this concern re: what Individual 1 is doing and will continue to do to further weaken our actual security. I am entirely at a loss to understand how the Senate Republicans can sleep at night, look in the mirror, piously pray, and everything else they are doing instead of acting to save our republic and perhaps our survival.
I will now go worry about what I am going to eat today, eat some of it, then crawl back into bed with a crossword and a cat to try to get back to my baseline level of anxiety.
